Ears and IPod

I've found my "ill fit".

I have been thin and evenly portioned, and now over weight and evenly portioned (and those that love me say I'm "big boned", but I know better!!!) Needless to say, it's not like I have some huge butt. It's just Vernetta getting smaller or Vernetta getting larger...

And I've always had a big head, so that's nothing new. Sadly, my neice inherited that trait. She's 8 and fits in my riding helmet...

Any WWWhhhhooo

For Christmas I got an IPod. I love it. I realize it's nothing new, but...

I Love IT!!

Since Joe's running with me in spirit and Jeza can't make the track, I'm on my own. The Pod has made me run faster.

But the earphones suck! My Freakishly small ears, for my Huge head, can not handle the ear-pods.

If something on this body is going to be small, glad it's not my boobs...

The house, THE HOUSE...

The poor, old house is not used to 3 people living in it. So far the shelving in the garage has rebelled, as well as the washer and dryer.

Imagine, for years all you've had to hold up are some coolers and rat poop. Then one day you have tons of shit piled up, what do you do? Sag. I too would sag. The house shelves must have loved me because they only sagged and didn't dump everything on the floor. They have been great house shelves, but now we have these:
I will always remember the old house shelves, but I'm loving these new cabinets. They are the bomb!!!

The washer complained about over work and decided to stop spinning. I must admit, he would spin for me, when I gave him a light load, but cursed everyone else. I tried to comfort and fix him but he wasn't up for the job. He liked coasting on a couple of jobs a week. The dryer suffered from his work ethic and couldn't hold up the non-spun new system and quietly gave up. So I had to buy these:

They love each other and work together. The washer tells his mate, the dryer, what the load is coming in and they are so happy together. And they have a new cupboard for the washing stuff (not seen in photo) that they love. Some day Jeza's box will live elsewhere...

These are all great, super duper, HUGE things!!! My big thing is parking MY cars in the garage. So we built a barn. A great barn, HUGE! "We" (Chuck) has painfully built the barn as it took him weeks. As he reminds me every time we look at it "Assembles in two hours". It took me longer than that to screw the screws into the wood. Needless to say, the barn is built and we have enough stuff in it that a car fits in the garage. Here's the barn:

Cute, no? We are gonna paint it and put up flowers, make it look pretty...

I love the barn, the new pantries, the washer/dryer, the extra room in the garage. It's great... But what is wrong with this picture:










That's not HOOF(heart)ED, is it???? Nope. That's the car the kids blew the engine out of and Chuck just got fixed but is not registered for driving (non-op) and is living here until...
I gotta laugh, no?
